Which of the following is an analogous statement?

AMan is like God ✓ Correct

CGandhi is the father of the nation

DMan is a rational being

Correct answer: (A) Man is like God

Explanation

'Man is like God' is analogous because it likens one thing to another.

An analogy asserts a resemblance between two distinct things.

The word 'like' sets up just such a comparison of man to God.

It claims shared features without asserting identity.

A statement built on 'is like' is an analogical statement.
